Our farm has a long heritage stretching back six generations from when our German ancestors first stepped foot in America in the 1840s. There have always been livestock on the hills of our operation, and we are continuing this tradition with our Registered Red Angus cattle and Heritage Berkshire hogs. Our Red Angus cattle are specifically bred for the Missouri environment where we have a high selection threshold for our cows to preform on the tall fescue forage. We also select bulls that are high for quality having some of the breed’s highest marbling and maternal traits. Our Berkshire hogs also follow the farm’s tradition of being raised on the land. These, like our cattle, are raised to the highest standards receiving quality living conditions and locally sourced grain for feed. We were even fortunate to have genetics imported from the source of the Berkshire breed, England, fine tuning the livestock we raise and care for.

This item is $6.50 per lb. The estimated weight is between 680 and 800 lbs. The estimated price is between $4,420.00 and $5,200.00 Final prices are determined by the final hanging weight taken by the butcher at one of our local abattoirs. After the animal is weighed at the processing facility the seller will charge the final cost of the product minus the deposit. All processing fees are included in the purchase price detailed above. We require that a $600 deposit be paid prior to delivery to the facility. The purchaser will receive a receipt for the ending balance. Prior to having the beef processed you will receive a email or call from Idle Wind Farms about the process to guide you through the cut sheet based on your cut preferences you would like to receive. (Eg. Roasts, steaks, stew meat, spareribs, brisket, steaks and thickness). All cuts will be vacuumed packed. We recommend bringing 4-5 coolers for your drive home. The livestock are raised on pasture rotational grazing and finished with a balanced diet of grain and hay. All animals are antibiotic-free and vaccinated for the health of the animal.
